I want my time with you.
Based on other reviews and the rating I liked this book a lot more than I thought I would. The premise is amazing and was executed beautifully. It was so refreshing to read a romance where it is a slow burn and they’re friends first. Yes, they got kinda googly-eyed over each other very early BUT they realized it and they were mature adults about it. Both of them knowing that recently coming off a breakup is not a good time to start a new relationship and fall instantly in love. One of the characters is actually seeing a therapist and I was so here for it. I loved how real and raw and true to life the plot was.
I adored the two main characters. I was cheering Millie and Jesse on, not just for them to get together romanticly but their lives in general. I felt invested in the outcome. They were both very relatable despite having famous parents. Jesse’s secret was an unexpected twist in the best way possible, not in a creepy secret kind of way. It was more in the I don’t want to hurt you kind of way. The book has many locations, London, Paris, Provincial France and Los Angeles. I felt like I was there. One of my favourite scenes was when Millie went shopping in France.
If you’re looking for a captivating romance that is so much more than a romance because it deals with not only love but life and family and broken hearts and all that other messy stuff…this is the book for you. This is my fifth book by the author and it’s so nice to get a winner every time. I highly recommend The Three Loves of Sebastian Cooper.
